This is my first time trying Dominican food! I got the mofongo (Fried plantains mashed with garlic…read moreand other ingredients, there's also some gravy, $15) with fried pork. The fried pork reminded me of Asian pork belly, but a little more deep fried. This made it tougher and harder to chew. Definitely make sure you have some water nearby to wash it down. Nice flavor though. The mofongo looks like mashed potato's with lots of extra ingredients, but it is much more dense. Even slightly warm, it is a little difficult to cut into. The flavor is pretty neutral. I got a beef empanada (2.50). The outer shell was fried very crispy. Filling was ground beef. I didn't taste too much of a particular spice. The creamy pink mayo? Sauce was nice to dip it in. Service was friendly and fast. I'm interested in coming back to try their other items.

This is one that's been on my list for a while. Finally I was able to make it here today for lunch…read morewith some colleagues, and I can say for sure it was AMAZING! I got there at Noon on a Friday, it was not too busy but we were a party 5 so once we got in the place looked a bit crowded as we had wait in line to order. When we got to order it got busy, so another server came in to help take our order so we didn't have to wait for long. The ambience in the restaurant was amazing! It had a an amazing Latin vibe with great music playing and food to back it up. I was with two people who grew up in Miami, and they agreed with me so I know this was a good Latin restaurant. Coming to the order, I got a shredded chicken torta with no cheese along with their spiciest salsa and verde salsa on the side and the boiled (they had fried as well, but I just wanted to be healthy) yuca. The torta was delicious, the spicy salsa gave an amazing kick to it and it chomped it down in no time. The boiled yuca was a bit bland but the verde sayce helped with that. With my friends from Miami loving this place, I will definitely be back here to try out mlre items out of their menu!

Our latest order from Sofrito Latin Innovation kitchen was AMAZING! My coworker and I love this…read morespot but sometimes have issues with ordering through Grubhub. Issues such as ordering an order of chicken empanadas and an order of beef empanadas and they're in the same box and you can't which is which. However, with a call ahead to ask for separate boxing, they followed through! The server on the phone was kind and understanding. The food... wow! The empanadas are AMAZING. BOTH the chicken and beef are perfectly cooked and filled with flavor. My friend ordered the Bistec con Tostones and loved it! She orders with black beans instead of refries beans. She wishes there was cheese involved and will order a side of cheese on the future. She loves the house dressing and the Peruvian. Wow! So cilantro heavy and yummy and creamy. I ordered the ACP and ADORED it. Perfectly cooked chicken and rice was lovely. Broccoli, onions and zucchini on point. I'm personally obsessed with the pink dressing and poured it over my whole bowl. Love love love. Will be back. Thank you!

Every time we go the amount of food gets smaller and the price increases or there's an extra charge for something. If you order to-go food it is also almost always an even less amount of food and very obviously just thrown together in a container. The chips for the chips and salsa are always stale. The inside of the establishment is as expected. They have bar specials often. Friendly staff most of the time.

8 years ago I did a review about the food being ok but the service being horrible. After a few…read moreyears we decided to give another try. Bad decision. Service was still horrible. The wait staff was out in the parking lot. The clueless manager up front doing nothing. Took forever to get served. Then forever to take order, get food, etc. They delivered the fajitas but didn't deliver the plates with the sides etc. We ate with no drinks. We should have paid attention to my own review and now the hundreds of others talking about the bad service. Obviously the owners don't care. Year after year of bad service.....ehh food reviews and they are still in business. The Lexington consumers are the fools for going back and i have been one but no more. Ever.
